Frasier is visiting. He was married to Charlotte but she died five years ago. Frasier and Roz are making their way to Niles and Daphne's wedding anniversary party. Fredrick and Alice are much older now. The party is in a cabin far far away...in a land where you need directions.
"Frasier could you turn the radio on..this silence is really getting on my nerves"
"sure Roz what station?"
"uh...just a sec I'll get to it" Roz reaches over to the radio and finds a station she likes.
Closed
off from love But something happened But I don't care what they say Keep bleeding Trying hard not to hear But
nothing's greater But I
don't care what they say Keep bleeding And it's draining all
of me I don't care what they say Keep bleeding Keep bleeding
I didn't need the pain
Once or twice was enough
And it was all in vain
Time starts to pass
Before you
know it you're frozen
For the very
first time with you
My heart melts into the ground
Found
something true
And everyone's looking round
Thinking I'm
going crazy
I'm in love
with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the
truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I
Keep, keep
bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open
But they talk so loud
Their
piercing sounds fill my ears
Try to fill me with doubt
Yet I
know that the goal
Is to keep me from falling
Than the rush that comes with your embrace
And
in this world of loneliness
I see your face
Yet everyone
around me
Thinks that I'm going crazy, maybe, maybe
I'm in love with you
They try to
pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's
crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open
and I
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep
bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep,
keep bleeding love
You cut me open
Oh they find it hard to believe
I'll be wearing these
scars
For everyone to see
I'm
in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know
the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on
closing
You cut me open and I
Keep,
keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open
and I
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep
bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep,
keep bleeding love
You cut me open and I
Keep bleeding
Keep,
keep bleeding love
Roz was singing along. Once in a while she'd glance at Frasier as if she was trying to make a point. Frasier had never heard Roz sing. She actually had a pretty voice he didn't expect that. There were some commercials after that song.
" Roz?" He asked she turned to him there was a tear falling from her eye.
"...you have a pretty singing voice" He smiled she smiled a huge smile and blushed a little turning away.
"thanks Fras" She smiled as she looked out the window.
"what's wrong?" He asked
"..oh I was just thinking of how my life doesn't have a purpose..." Roz stated Frasier was surprised normally Roz wouldn't think that deeply.
" nonsense Roz..your life has a purpose.." He stated. Suddenly the commercials were over.
Bright
cold silver moon I need a little more luck than a
little bit I need a little more help than a little
bit I stare up at the stars I need a little more luck than a little bit I
need a little more help than a little bit I
know it feels like the end I
need a little more luck than a little bit I need a little
more help than a little bit I know it feels like
the end
Tonight alone in my room
You were here just
yesterday
Slight turn of the head
Eyes down when you said
I
guess I need my life to change
Seems like something's just aren't
the same
What could I say?
Cuz every time I get stuck the words won't fit
And
every time that I try I get tongue tied
I'll need a little good
luck to get me by
Like the perfect one word no one's heard yet
Cuz every time
that I try I get tongue tied
I need a little good luck to get me
by this time
I wonder just where
you are
You feel a million miles away
(I wonder just where you
are)
Was it something I said?
Or something I never did?
Or
was I always in the way?
Could someone tell me what to say to just
make you stay?
Cuz
every time I get stuck the words won't fit
And every time that I
try I get tongue tied
I need a little good luck to get me by
Like the perfect one
word no one's heard yet
Cuz every time that I try I get tongue
tied
I need a little good luck to get me by this time
Don't want to be here again
And we
could help each other off the ground so we never fall down again
What
it takes I don't care
We're gonna make it I swear
And we could
help each other off the ground so we never fall down again
Again
Cuz every time I get
stuck the words won't fit
But every time that I try I get tongue
tied
I need a little good luck to get me by
Like the perfect one word no one's
heard yet
Cuz every time that I try I get tongue tied
I need a
little good luck to get me by this time
Don't want to be here again
And we could help each
other off the ground so we never fall down again
What it takes I
don't care
We're gonna make it I swear
And we could help each
other off the ground so we never fall down again
Frasier was surprised that he was singing along. That for some reason this song reminded him of his friendship with Roz whenever he wanted to say something the right thing it didn't come out right.
He once thought he could be in love with her. He pushed the thought out of his mind that time.
Frasier now realized that his life with Charlotte was perfect...and he just wasn't ready then to love Roz.
Roz was a hard person to love. Now that he was far away, Fredrick would be off to college soon...Alice would be leaving high school,Charlotte had been dead for five years now. He missed her.
He also missed Roz when he was away. There was always this pang in his heart.
She said I've never done a
thing like this ever before
and while the lights were out
her keys and dress
stuck to the floor
well I know we just met
but what's her name I forget
and at that moment she looked at me
and she said
O o O
this nights about me and you
to do what ever you want to
make me feel
make me love
make me can't get enough
and as I layed her down
her perfume took a hold of me
I kissed her neck
and she said
do what you want to me
I looked her deep in the eyes
and felt her temperature rise
and started living my fantasy
and she said
O o O
this nights about me and you
to do what ever you want to
make me feel make me
love
make me can't get enough
O o O
this nights about me and you
to do whatever we want to
till we can't get till we can't get
enough
O o O
this nights about me and you
to do what ever you want to
make me feel
make me love
make me can't get enough
and when the morning
her voice her legs burning like a cigarette
got what she wanted from me
then decided to leave I guess I thought of her differently
then she said
O o O
And suddenly Frasier realized that the car died. The radio was off. Every light in the car was off. It was dark and they were on the road they didn't even pull over. It didn't matter there was no one on the road anyway. If their was it would be better then they would be found.
" Do you have a cellphone?" Frasier asked. Roz searched her bag. She pulled out a cell.
"HA! I do!" She smiled Frasier smiled back at her..watching her tuck her hair behind her ear.
She dialed Daphne's cell number.
" Hey Daphne..it's Roz..Frasier's car broke down...were ...on...Frasier what does that road sign say?" Roz asked putting her hand over the place where she talking.
"uh..." Frasier squinted and peered out the window "I think it says...rose ave" He said.
" he says it's rose ave" Roz stated she put her hand over the receiver again.
" she says were...about two hours away and she's coming to get us.." Roz said then she lifted her hand.
"thanks Daphne we should be good till then...we have..a blanket..." Roz stated. She closed her phone and put it in her purse. She turned to look at Frasier.
" Should we adjourn to the back seat it's already getting cold in here.?" Roz asked. She saw Frasier chuckle.
"Seriously Frasier is that they only way you've heard that word used in a sentence you know I don't mean that" Roz stated.
" Okay you go first" Frasier said. Roz got up careful not to hit her head she made her way to the seat directly behind her own. Then Frasier carefully made his way to the seat directly behind his own as well. Roz picked up the blanket off the floor and throw one half over the Frasier and pulled the other tightly around herself.
" So...now we don't have the radio..you don't have a book to read...what do we talk about?" Roz asked.
"...remember what it was like an KACL when you were my producer?" Frasier asked.
" those were some crazy..crazy times" Roz stated unconsciously scooting closer to Frasier. He thought it was just because she was cold.
"remember when I thought you were in love with me?" He asked Roz blushed. She had lied so badly then.
"yup..I told you off" Roz said "you thought that after all that time..." She trailed off chucking. Frasier smiled she had a cute laugh.
"well truth was...it was me that was in love with you" He said Roz now had her head on his shoulder. She tilted her head up to look at him to find him looking at her. His eyes were so soft.
"really?" She asked surprised.
"yeah I was scared because we were friends...and...well it seemed too weird"He said.
"what am I saying were and was for?" He asked she stared blankly at him.
" I still do" a hint of a smile grazed his lips. Roz looked at the ground.
"say something Roz..." Frasier stated.
"..I lied" She said. Then she titled her head back to look at him. "when I said I wasn't in love with you...I was desperately in love with you...okay still am" She said.
"isn't this sad?" Frasier asked
"why?" She asked
"well because it took us longer then Daphne and Niles.." Frasier smiled Roz jabbed him with her elbow.
" do you always have to out do your brother?" Roz asked
"yes and I have" Frasier smiled.
" how you figure?" Roz asked
"well because I have you..and he doesn't" Frasier smiled Roz rolled her eyes and gazed at him. Frasier was lowering his head. Roz was almost nervous. She'd kissed him before this time was just going to actually mean something for once in her life. She closed her eyes and crossed her fingures.
Then their lips touched. Roz's heart was racing..her cheeks were burning, and she was trembling.
It felt wonderful. Suddenly Roz saw light behind her eyelid and heard a horn. Roz was forced to part from Frasier. They gazed at each other for a moment. Then turned to see Daphne's car beside their window with Niles's in the passenger seat. They both had great big grins on their faces. Frasier got out of the car and into Daphne and Niles's. Roz had to get her bag then she was out and in the car. Once Roz and Frasier had fasened their seat belts Daphne had to ask.
" so ..what was that?"
"yeah you two seemed a little to cosy back there" Niles stated. Frasier reached his hand over to Roz's. She took it eagerly. He sqeezed it and she glanced at him.
"well" Frasier started
"well...Frasier said he was in love with me..and still is" Roz started saving everyone a lot of time.
" and then Roz said that she lied the day she told me she didn't love me...and that she still does..too" Frasier said. Roz looked at him and sighed she had to breath even though she was too afraid it was all just a dream. Niles and Daphne exchanged glances and then continued to drive.
